Green & Co.'S report on cotton futures says:
'The strength Of the market for cotton options
to-day has centered mainly on October. for
which there was a slight squeeze, and for all
that shorts were compelled to cover. The price
was pegged at points advance, and held until
liquidation was over outside of this, however,
the tone weak and slow, with the market
exhibiting a more or less dead look Selling
was not very free on new deals, but long cotton
leaked out with some freedom in advance of tine
demand, and evident disappointment over the
tenor of advices from abroad, which have be
come slightly modified Prices declined 0Go7
points, and subsequently reacted 2D3 points,
closing steady. Southern markets were firm,
but port receipts were very liberal"

CHICAGO, Oct 2S.-Ilc wheat situation seems
TO be slowly getting more strength, which is
giving slight impetus to prices. Values at the
opening this morning were slightly improved.
During the earlier part of the session there was
but little trading. and the market dragged, with
December about 539sMT3Ic. The principal cx-
element was when December advanced from

market met strong opposition in the shape of
very liberal offerings December closed 1910

pean account Receipts CONTINUE quite free.
Corn ruled quiet most of the session, with trad
ing moderate. The market opened about NC.
under the closing prices of yesterday, ductuated
within 3lc. range, and closed a shade lower than
Yesterday. Receipts were somewhat larger
than expected, ana estimated arrivals for TO.

ate offerings ut times by a prominent local op
orator prevented any material advance. OATS
were steady AMI strong, in sympathy with other
markets. AT the same time there was verJ
little doing and prices fiuctuated bat little from
